Blisaed once again brings us dreamy rollin, honest, but naive electronic trips. The title track, I wanna be your fantasy, is a trip-hoppy, bouncy yet humble track sugarcoated with blisaed's trademark emotional nostalgia. Continuing in the same mindset, Dehiscence is a calm, idm/hip-hop mix of sweet vibes and piano melodies. High quality music with soul.

The full lenght features 2 tracks from the professional wikkid record compilation, Something Wikkid This Way Drumz [Touch the sky and Effect.Affection] and many different cute & nostalgic progressive beatwork and melodies.

Benefit of the boomearng furthers his character with this psychotic f*cking release, The Rodent Conspiracy. 6 tracks of utter psychadelicious, destructive poetry. Melting metal and mind, the result is a chaotic mix of broken jungalized beats, evil clown music, spasmic electric mayhem and razorsharp vibes. A chunk of his musical flesh, this ep is as thoughtnumbing as it is ingenious, as nerve-racking as it is imaginative and as original as it is suprising ! Check it out !

After more than 2 years of inactivity, Ronin Collective is back, and we wanted to do a special release for our return. Gama, a 24 track, 2hour compilation featuring Ronin members, guests and friends perfectly defining the eclecticism behind the Ronin style. You'll find everything ronin has been and more; returning members deliver yet again with a periphery of tones and styles from Blisaed's guitar-hop, to Wiseman's folk-psychadelia, to Benefit of the Boomerang's flaming jungle and V0idnull's...

Following up on his first ever netrelease on benefit of the boomerang's netlabel Yomi Records, Holland's Fah brings us 34 minutes of intense beat engineering and manipulation. Eclectic, slow paced tracks filled with mechanical darkness that contradictivaly creates an organic feel through the musical hydrolics. Creeping, yet warm and comferting at times, a peak into unkown territory. BioBip is fah's own mixture of idm and ambient brought to you through the staticity of his individuality.

Starting off with a dark and mysterious electronica trip with '' let the sounds begin'', the rest of the album follows the mood the first track sets and flows perfectly into one another to end with the equally adequate Fumes v4, a 12 minute ambiant breakbeat epic.. Done with masterfull tecnique, the dark, ecelectic, electric, sometimes hectik, sometimes mathematik, trip-hoppy sound 1vs0 showcases in this LP...

Libris is back at ronin, releasing the first single track and also his first solo release, ''Fluid Power'' , a name well chosen, which accurately depicts the light and heavy/ slow but fast mood this track offers. Trademark to libris is his long progressive melodies and beatwork, ever changing and evolving from start to finish. There's a certain mettalic liquidity that makes this track a sincerly memorable one ; a perfect soundtrack to look outside, at night, when it rains on concrete.

Fah is back at ronin with a 53 minutes full length release of pure, dark bliss. After releasing some eps on Botb's netlabel Yomi Records, he offers us Halftone Bin, 8 tracks of ambient mastery. Genious sound architechture it is: delicate tones and subtle, warm ambiences with sometimes contrasting simple beats, drones and haunting effects. Organic, chaotic, yet somewhat techincal and cold, Halftone Bin's contradicting moods form great moments of beauty, sadness and introspection.

Wiseman comes back to ronin and releases a 4 track EP entitled '' another kind of muzik : Let's start the revolution ''. While the title may seem agressive, this kind of muzik is as jazzy, chilled out and mellow as it gets. Think late night cabarets, martini vs. urban travel / gangster jazz vs. northern europe. Something to listen while laying back, smokin' one, with coffee in the mourning. Made with extensive amounts of sensimilla, this music brightens the day with its simple playfullness; and...

Following up on those footsteps, he presents to us his No Name ep, 9 minutes of absolutely beatless, blissfull travels into orchestral soundscapes and pianos. Enchanting, charming and esotheric, 3 tracks of pure emotion, of pure intimacy that eftexem has the goodwill to share with us. Beauty and sadness, melded into music.
